It was, to cope with jiist this condi-. lion, that the Aleph Zadik Aleph, the junior organization of the Independent Order B'nai B'rith was formed in 1»24.- Having as -its purpose.-thie. strengthen¬ ing of the Jewi-sh ¦ affiliation-, of youn^ men between the ages of sixteen, atid twenty-one, it , has developed an edu-' cation and social prograui that has won for it more than one thousand mem-; Ijers, in over, forty chapters.

Very Comprehensive .
[ts membership is open I not Only to; students, who have their own fraterni-, tiesV but also, to clerks, office workers, and all others who, are attracted .by their., common attachment to Jewish life. ;It trains the boy for' Jewish leadership; . he learns to be a. .spokesman for Jewry; a strong champion of its cause because he-knows its. reason' for existence; At' the .age of. tWenty-bne,- he graduates ¦from A.Z.
